$Apple(AAPL)$ Apple recently faced two negative factors: first, Pelosi disclosed selling 31,600 Apple shares on Tuesday; second, TSMC's earnings report last week showed a quarter-over-quarter revenue decline due to seasonal factors in smartphone demand.The stock price has pulled back from its peak of 260 to 220, returning to levels before Trump's presidential campaign success.Considering Pelosi sold her shares on the 14th, after Tuesday's pullback, it might seem like a good opportunity to buy the dip or sell puts, but what's the actual situation?According to options trading details, put option positions show strong bearish signals, with downside targets at 210, 200, and 180:This time, sorting by open interest is more telling since Apple's downward

Two additional large orders for Chinese concept stocks:$KWEB 20250919 32.0 CALL$  September-expiring 32 call, exchange-traded, opened 46,000 lots, total transaction value approximately 11 million. $ASHR 20250321 26.0 CALL$  26 call expiring in March, opened 32,000 lots, with a total transaction value of approximately 3.48 million. The trading direction is relatively neutral. Although the direction label is bearish, the transaction price is 1.09, which is not far from the difference between the bid and ask prices, 0.02 and 0.03 respectively. It can be interpreted in either way.

$NVDA$After TSM's earnings report on Thursday showing long-term AI benefits, I expected to see large bullish options positions in NVIDIA. I was stunned to see 22,800 new June contracts with a $5 strike price! $NVDA 20250620 5.0 CALL$  With NVIDIA trading around $135, a $5 strike means deep in-the-money options, with prices approximately equal to stock price minus strike price. Each contract cost around $13,000, making the 22,800 contracts worth about $296 million.Deep in-the-money options have poor liquidity, and since this large order wasn't executed on-exchange, it took considerable time to fill.While the strike price may not provide much directional guidance, a $300 million purchase representing 2.28 million shares upon

$TSM$Like Tesla, TSM publishes monthly reports, so earnings focus on Q1 outlook and overall 2025 expectations.Overall revenue in 2025 is expected to grow 20% to $113 billion. Q1 2025 sales are projected at $25-25.8 billion. Capital expenditure for 2025 is expected to increase to $38-42 billion.Regarding revenue growth, institutions believe annual growth will exceed TSM's expectations, projecting 26-30%.Earnings data generally meets analyst expectations, with institutional price targets at 250, so continue bullish on NVIDIA!TSM is also good, but considering margin efficiency and implied volatility, NVIDIA offers better value.$ASHR$The large single-leg call position of 66,400 contracts traded on December 10-11 $ASHR 20250221 29.0 CA

$iShares China Large-Cap ETF(FXI)$ After the rebound in the past two days, institutions have been eagerly entering long positions.On Tuesday, $FXI 20250221 31.0 CALL$  saw new positions of 66,600 contracts, showing strong bullish sentiment.The 66,600 new contracts consist of two large orders: a single-leg call and a call spread:Buy $FXI 20250221 31.0 CALL$ , volume 20,000 contractsBuy $FXI 20250221 31.0 CALL$ , volume 30,000 contractsSell $FXI 20250221 34.0 CALL$ , volume 30,000 co

$Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ Morgan Stanley's new Tesla report title blinded my dog's eyes: "Revisiting our Tesla Robotaxi and Mobility Model: Target to $430, Bull Case $800"What's the main driver for Tesla's stock price increase? It's physical AI!However, for such an important driving force, the article didn't provide specific quantitative data - those who know, know.The article ends with three price targets: base case $430, bull case $800, and bear case $200.After reading, I'm at a loss for words - can only say it's invincible, though I won't specify in what way.Also, institutions' sell call 405 from yesterday got squeezed. Well, let's wait for earnings. $KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF(KWEB)$ &

I deeply miss the washout from August 5th last year. It's so difficult now.$NVDA$Let me first review last Friday - Wall Street was particularly crafty and didn't follow the usual playbook.Last Friday January 10th, due to large opening positions in 125 put $NVDA 20250117 125.0 PUT$ , considering time decay's impact on option value, I thought there might be a short squeeze in the opposite direction - a sharp drop Friday followed by a gap down Monday, so I bought 125 puts waiting for intraday decline.However, shortly after market open there was a deep V-shaped recovery. The rebound caused call volume to disperse put volume - option trading didn't become one-sided. At 12PM I saw no opportunity for the second half, so I closed

In December, we summarized the bullish positioning in Chinese stocks, with two large orders particularly noteworthy: 98,000 contracts of $YINN 20260116 27.0 CALL$  traded in one day, and 210,000 contracts of $CHAU 20250516 15.0 CALL$ .These two large orders were positioned just before the December 9th surge, becoming highly visible in the market, with various media speculating about the source of the funds. After a month of volatility, on January 10th evening, Yinn plunged 8.69% and CHAU dropped 4.44%, finally forcing these large positions to close at a loss.According to Monday's updated open interest data,

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ This Friday through next week looks dangerous.After killing the shorts last Friday (January 3rd) and the longs on Tuesday (January 7th), the shorts are striking again, opening 47,000 contracts of January 17 expiry 125 puts $NVDA 20250117 125.0 PUT$ .This wasn't done through regular market trading; they likely placed direct orders due to good liquidity in next week's expiring options. From this order style, it seems the shorts aren't trying to hide their intentions, placing orders for whatever quantity was available, making it easy to spot in unusual activity screens.On the bulls' side, institutions are implementing a call spread for next week, selling 144 calls aga

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ As it turns out, we popped the champagne too early yesterday.Surprisingly, those who bought call options in bulk on Monday were wealthy retail investors, not the usual institutional players. And I, misreading the situation, became a small retail investor following the big ones to the slaughter.On Tuesday, within the first hour of trading, NVIDIA's stock price fell to its low, and this wealthy retail investor closed almost all February expiry call options bought on Monday opening, roughly estimated at 470,000 contracts:Closing at the lowest point, they lost about half of their principal, roughly calculated at around $100 million.Looking back through historical articles, we know this wealthy retail investor - they should be the "Procu
